REFRIGERATOR & FREEZER DISPOSAL.
That garage backup fridge has been humming and hauling up your power bill for years. When it finally quits, we take it away and make sure the refrigerant is handled the right way.
The short version
Refrigerators and freezers are not ordinary junk. They hold refrigerant that, under EPA Section 608 rules, has to be safely recovered before the unit can be disposed of, and the final disposer must document that it happened. We route every fridge and freezer to recyclers who recover the refrigerant properly, so you never have to worry about the legal side.

LANDFILL LAST, ALWAYS.

Questions
GOOD TO KNOW.
Do you handle the freon or refrigerant?
Yes. EPA rules require refrigerant to be recovered before a fridge or freezer is disposed of, and the final disposer must document it. We route units to recyclers who recover it properly, so it is fully handled to code.
How much does it cost to remove a refrigerator?
It is a flat fee per unit, confirmed up front, which may include a small refrigerant handling charge. Adding other appliances to the same trip lowers your overall cost.
Do I need to empty or defrost it first?
Emptying it helps, and a quick defrost keeps things tidy, but it is not required. Just let us know if it is still cold so we can plan for any water.
Can you get it out of a basement or garage?
Yes. We handle stairs, tight doorways, and long carry-outs as part of the job, so a basement fridge is no problem.
